What Does My Mom Do?

By Lisa K Ott

When my five year old daughter asked me about gravitational pulls on the moon, I quickly retorted, "Great question. Let's google that " Instead of agreeing, my five year old said, "That's ok, Mom, I'll just ask Dad. He's smarter and he'll know."

I nearly wrecked the car.

"Why is Dad smarter?"

"He has an office, a briefcase and goes to WORK," she answered.

So, this book is born out of the list of 64 paying and non-paying jobs that I've personally had so far and is dedicated to the hundreds of jobs that Moms do daily to care for their children. It's a tribute to Moms everywhere. No matter what color, gender or religion you are, every human life begins with a Mom. And if you were blessed with a Mom as incredible as mine, you can understand why I wrote a book in her honor.

A love letter to Moms everywhere, this rhyming picture book is a multi-genenerational collaboration of effort. The words are mine, (Lisa Ott) the artwork is my Mom, (Gigi or Pam Koch) and the added colors are my kids. (the Otters)

A little girl discovers that her Mom has many "jobs" in order to raise her and wonders which one is most important.
